Bücher von Lawrence M. Friedman

This is the fifth edition of a very successful textbook on clinical trials methodology, written by recognized leaders who have long and extensive experience in all areas of clinical trials.

Through a series of historical analyses, Friedman explores the relationship between the legal system and the development of modern science and technology.

In a society of strangers, there develops what can be called crimes of mobility -- forms of criminality rare in traditional societies: bigamy, the confidence game, and blackmail, for example. What they have in common is a kind of fraudulent role-playing, which the new society makes possible.

This book examines our basic understandings of privacy as they are challenged by modern technology, changing social mores, and evolving legal understandings that both reflect and reinforce underlying changes in society.
